Big Problem Revisited
The ESC didn't cause the problem but Mickey did. Interestingly enough, the dealer didn't even look at the air filter after finding the paper because this is what they would have found. Probably happened before the ESC was installed.

Fortunately, the mouse left before driving the car. If you look at the left you can see some sunflower seeds.

Are you sure it was a mouse. The same thing happen to me in my tc a few years ago when I purchased a cheap ebay filter. After about 8 months it started shredding apart and parts of it were being sucked into the engine and this why I have a frs now lol

Lols my god...
Is that an aftermarket filter? That sob must have made its way into the snorkel and up the piping. Glad to learn that the ESC is still a safe option.

Maybe he's got roasted mouse in his intake valves...or exhaust valves would make more sense for roasted mouse.
Maybe you got mouse in your engine bro. |
